shout out is like. The Best Friends Song Ever to me. THAT SOUNDS NOT THE WAY I WANT IT TO BUT LIKE ?? idk how to explain it. but it reminds me of my friends SO badly. just like. us yelling and laughing maniacally over nothing and yelling about k-pop idols and playing those like "pick one drop one" k-pop games on youtube. maybe this is too specific but like ??? i just had to share this info with y'all !

Seeing Alastors and Vox beef feels like im the child of their divorce, only difference to a real divorce is that they were never romantically involved with eachother and they just have unhealthy obsessions with each other.

Which brings me to my little theory, that Alastor might also have an obsession with Vox or at least gives some kind of shit about him and doesn’t show it so openly like Vox does.

Obviously not in a romantic/sexual way just if like Al hyperfixated on his littel guy too unhealthily. And that would make everything WAY messier because their obsessions have different meanings:

Vox has his little hate-crush

and

Alastor who just wants him for entertainment, maybe Al wants him back as a friend even(that ripped foto haunts me) and doesn’t want Vox advances.

And ig my bit of proof? Is that Al only had duets with two people: Lucifer(who we know he doesn’t like) and Vox

At the end of Stayed Gone Al hints he wants to continue beefing with Vox too

(This theory isn’t og mine its from an irl friend and we expanded on it and i just wanted to share)

I don't think alastor is obsessed with vox but I think he does enjoy his rivalry with him because vox gives him the attention he seeks (as we've seen from his reactions to carmilla and lucifer not giving a fuck about him, he is very bothered when people don't care, meanwhile vox literally broadcasted his return on live tv), and bullying him is probably very entertaining to him LMAOOO. I do think alastor enjoys keeping up his rivalry with vox because of this. and I do think their falling out also impacted his current attitude towards modern tech. I don't think alastor wants vox back as a friend? I mean he's the one that turned down being on a team with him LMAO. maybe he could in a "I wish you didn't end up like this" way!?!???! but at this current point in time, I'm pretty sure alastor was the one who stepped away because he disagreed with vox's worsening attitude or practices

either way I do think vox's obsession with alastor is still imbalanced because of like multiple factors:

their respective reactions to the other first being mentioned after alastor's 7 year absence. kinda talked about it here. but basically when the vees are brought up in front of alastor, he just casually says "oh nobody important". alastor being brought up in front vox causes a very big reaction, and IMMEDIATELY gets him to completely drop the calm and cunning demeanor he had the ENTIRE time before that that he kept up with both his coworkers, employee and civilians. he was calmly able to manipulate val to stop him from going after the hotel. but one mention of alastor made him completely lose his cool. meanwhile for alastor to have a reaction that's similar to that, he had to have his deal that constrained his freedom brought up which is a BIG deal to him, nothing about vox made him react that same way.

most of vox's screentime has alastor occupying his head rent-free, let's not forget the whole of episode 8. alastor stares into vox's cameras to mess with him but like naturally, a large portion of the time alastor is noticeably not thinking of vox. vox meanwhile was already spying specifically on the hotel start of episode 8, literally keeping focus on alastor during the extermination. the only hint of anything in return from this would be like I said, alastor staring into the camera to mess with vox, otherwise vox is not on his mind

not to word of god this but also: Faustisse described Vox as having something of a fixation on Alastor and that he is interested in having Alastor notice him. Alastor does not have the same interest in return. although stated by ex-staff, I do think this made into canon proper LMAO

it's not like I think their rivalry is completely one-sided because alastor will still fight back with petty insults and all that when provoked (he did like immediately return to his radio tower to bash vox when he saw vox trying to diss him in stayed gone), but it's very clear to me only one of them is completely and utterly obsessed with the other

Roseblood Chapter 16

And we're back for another chapter in this Fanfic, that I'm having some serious trouble with. Also, not sure if anyone's reading, but hey, just staying productive ya know. Anyways, no real warning for this chapter, so enjoy!

............

"Rae, you need to wake up baby," Dwayne kissed her forehead softly.

"Hm?" she looked tired, her hair a big mess and some dark circles under her eyes.

"You need to wake up Rae, it's dark already."

She opened her eyes, looking at him. "What are we gonna do today?"

He shrugged. "We need to get some food, the others are going to the boardwalk but if you don't wanna go then-"

"Actually I - I think I might..."

Dwayne smiled as Rhaina stepped on behind him, holding him tightly as he drove off. Laddie decided to ride with Marko, and since Star preferred to ride with David, Rhaina could ride with him.

Her laugh drifted through the air as they raced, Dwayne almost catching up with David. Marko was just behind them, and he'd lost track of Paul, but knew he couldn't be far off.

They stopped suddenly. They were at the boardwalk already, near the entrance.

"Dwayne? Are you and Rhaina okay now?" Laddie looked up to him as the two of them walked to a foodstand.

"Hmhm."

"Is she okay now?"

"She's getting there," he looked at Laddie. "Why do you ask?"

"I'm worried about her."

"We all are. What worries you?"

"She's- I dont know... She seems scared of a lot of things now."

"She is, but that's okay, you know? We're here to help her."

"Can I help?"

"Yeah," he smiled, handing Laddie some fries, before walking back with him.

Rhaina was still quiet, but she seemed more relaxed now, having told her story. Quiet giggles escaped her when Marko and Paul pulled some pranks on the boardwalk, and she smiled a bit more.

Rhaina looked up as Dwayne took her hand. "Come," he looked at her, before pulling her along through the crowds. He walked her down the stairs, leading her to the beach.

"Where are we going?" she asked softly.

"You'll see."

"Dwayne," Rhaina giggled, wanting an answer.

"You're gonna like it, just trust me on this."

"Promise?"

Dwayne nodded, leading her into the forest.

"You always wanted me to take you flying right?"

"Wait- you remember that?"

"Hard to forget when you mention it almost weekly."

"I do not!"

"You do," he grinned, "But if you don't want to then-"

"I never said that I didn't want to..."

Dwayne smiled, looking at her. "Come on, jump on my back."

"You really wanna do this?"

"You are the one who wants to fly, remember?"

Rhaina laughed as she jumped on his back.

With a yelp she realised she was no longer on the ground. She had barely noticed it. She held on tightly, smiling as she looked around. "It's beautiful up here."

Dwayne found it hard to disagree. He landed back on the ground again, looking at the human girl in front of him. She was smiling.

"That was awesome."

In a small house not to far from them was a fight between two brothers taking place.

"My own brother! A Shit sucking vampire!" Sam yelled as he ran up the stairs, locking himself in his room.

Michael was a vampire, or atleast on his way of becoming one. He had to do something to stop it. He couldnt let Michael become a creature of the night. What would Mom say if she knew? Or Grandpa?

Sam had to stop it, and he knew how.

"Edgar? This is Sam. We've got a problem."

Honestly, I'm not just saying that to shut you up or anything Buster: We're fine Buster: I'm not mad at you, I never was and you don't need to be scared about any of the bullshit they've said Buster: I'm exactly where I wanna be Rio: Good Rio: Me too Rio: I just want to be as happy as we are when it's just us Buster: Come here Buster: Nobody else needs to exist right now Buster: I'm gonna hold you and you're just gonna breathe, okay Rio: That sounds perfect Rio: and all I need Buster: We can stay like this for as long as you need Rio: Carry me from person to person babe Rio: I'm sorry I can only talk like this, bye Buster: You think you're joking but I could Buster: I would Rio: You're strong and I ain't that big yet Rio: people should come to me though, like, come on Rio: 👑 Buster: You know I'll carry you anywhere Buster: The sea, to get a drink, wherever you want Buster: I can make everyone else come to you too, I'm that dramatic, I'll easily make a scene Rio: You're so cute Rio: What's your plan for a scene then?

Buster: How are they then? Buster: Besides missing me madly like Rio: Yeah, that's the general consensus here, like Rio: Assuming I'm talking to the girls? 😜 Rio: Everyone's good, enjoying their freedom from education hard, being cute gays, like Rio: How are you lot, babe? Buster: Better not be too hard though, Nance has got a lot of hair to hold back. Your brother not so much, granted Buster: Oh you know, we're manic. High on sugar and poor impulse control Rio: Don't worry, the stylish yet efficient bun is in, she'd not risk her crowning glory, like 😂 Rio: 😏 and that's just you, yeah? Buster: Standard Buster: 'Course. Only bribe you with the sweet stuff Rio: Likewise Rio: You know my weaknesses Rio: I'll facetime later to read 'em a story, I found some cool new ones out here Rio: Why were we shopping for kid's stuff I hear you not ask, well Rio: Don't worry, your sister ain't knocked up Buster: You gonna facetime me later too, yeah? Buster: I got to thinking she'd landed herself another MILF, this time with kids in toe like Rio: Duh, know you can't sleep without a story from me either, I got you baby Rio: Nope Rio: You'll never guess Buster: Are you actually gonna make me Buster: Or just tell me Rio: Alright, Demi and June are going to have a baby! Buster: You're right I'd never have guessed that one Rio: Well, here's the thing Rio: they've asked me to surrogate for them Buster: But you burst their bubble, right? Buster: And then they found someone else Rio: No Rio: We've not gone ahead and started the process or anything but I think its a good idea Rio: it'll make it so its biologically a bit of both of them, as close as Buster: Yeah I get where they're coming from and what they get out of it Rio: You don't think it'd be a nice thing for me to do for them? Why not? I've got the eggs, the incubator Buster: Nice ain't the word, babe Rio: Its my little brother, if I can do something to make him happy, I wanna Rio: and it won't be that much of a hardship on me, like Rio: Sure I can deal with morning sickness and the rest Buster: If you say so Rio: You don't want me to Buster: It ain't up to me Rio: No but I care about your opinion Buster: Yeah? Buster: That's why you already said you'd do it Rio: Not officially, or exactly Rio: I couldn't no it out of the gate Rio: He's so excited, you know what he's like, it would've looked weird if I wasn't Buster: Fuck that Buster: It's weird that you wanna do it Rio: Why is that weird? Buster: 'Cause you ain't Chlo, wanting to just give your kid over when you reckon your part's done Rio: Don't say that Rio: It won't be mine Buster: Bullshit Buster: You're carrying it, you think you're not gonna get attached feeling it kick and everything Buster: Come on Rio: Plenty of women do it Rio: All the time Buster: I don't care about them Buster: I care about you Rio: Then trust me when I say I can Buster: You know I trust you Buster: But can't I be worried, like Buster: Just trying to look at this from the POV you won't Rio: Of course you can but Rio: It isn't fair if they can't have a kid Buster: Grace can't either, you gonna offer for her too? Buster: Don't act like there aren't other options Rio: If she asked, yeah Rio: but she's 18 and single so quite unlikely Buster: You know what I mean Rio: Well what if I want to experience it myself Rio: I'm not going to get a chance now either, unless I take this Buster: That's not a reason to put yourself through this Rio: You can't say that Rio: You don't know, you have kids, and your a man, its totally different Buster: So it's my fault now? Buster: Whatever Buster: You wanted my opinion Buster: I know what it's like to not be able to raise your kid yourself, remember? I don't want that for you Rio: Didn't say that Rio: I'm saying you can't know how I feel on it Rio: It isn't like I'll never see it Rio: still be family Buster: Don't you reckon that'll be harder?
